Love it, Dru

Excellent, in every sense of the word: counts, directives, and intent in following in the spirit that one of the truly tangible facets of what the Senryu is meant to convey.
For me, your Senryu literally strives to express needed fervor for acceptance and the strife to be trusted and believed-in, even though the opposite may appear…Read More

Thanks Fia.
This was actually the last ever poem she wrote before the morphine, methadone and chemo took hold of her skull. She was very popular in DU.

Also on behalf of Sappho, I would like to thank you for listening.
The lyrics are about something we both care deeply about. And she was the one to write this inspiring poem. And artwork of course.Thank you so much for your very fine compliments. They go a long way!
Kind regards, Sappho and Gus

Powerful penned, Elke and Gus. Excellent collaboration you two. Great lyrics, Elke and excellent music, Gus. Your guitar tone has a little Neil Young vibe going on. Top notch both of you. Appreciate you, both.

I bow most reverently to Sappho ‘n Gus 🙏
Stunningly beautiful, You Two, in every sense of the word.
Artwork choice, title, and the Envelope Form in its abba rhyme-scheme (with spot-on and soft rhymes), work perfectly together, just as writing and musical skills came together in rendering this lovely, impacting virtual masterpiece in homage to Mother Earth’s ever dwindling beauty and life sustaining wonders.Simply, an enthralling co-write … love it deeply!
Thank you both! ⁓ Richard🖌Nits:

I bow with gratitude to you, dear Richard! A breathtaking comment and the appreciation of a writer like you means a world to me!
I have gratefully implemented your kind suggestions for improvement. As English is not my mother tongue I appreciate this all the more! 🙏

I’ve written a few from this vein myself and no doubt we’ll write many more, trying to get people to pay attention. The both of you did an amazing job on this. 🙌
